Try specifying separate serial poerts for HRD and Icom,m and enable them both in Console. I have successfully done this with two different logging programs, i.e. got both of them successfully talking to the same instance of Console simultaneously.

The Icom doesn't understand the TS-2000 protocol so needs to be connected with a hardware serial cable to your computer and can than be added as External Radio in SDRC, via Omni-Rig (Rig-1).
HRD can be added in Omni-Rig as Rig-2 and a virtual serial cable but as Jim proposes, better connect it directly to SDRC (also via a virtual serial cable), using the TS-2000 protocol. The serial ports list in SDRC can be found under Tools, Options (CAT Serial Ports).
